A Beauty In An All-Male Alpha Academy

Chapter 269: Could This Be Love?

Angela knew she had to find out what Marcus really wanted from her, what he expected in return for the help he gave. Even though he was her parent, she wasn’t used to any family member doing something for her without wanting something back. All her life, she had always paid Grace or Uncle Toga for every little thing they did for her, whether with money or by doing chores.

"Do you want to see what’s going on?" Hiro asked, taking her hand in his. She looked at him, confused, and he smiled. "You want to... I know it."

"I would like to know what’s happening," Angela said as she climbed out of the bed. She looked at the wall beside her for the first time and saw her name written in a beautiful frame hanging there. "Whose house is this?"

Taros’ gaze shifted to his brother. They exchanged looks, unsure how to tell her. "If you’re not comfortable here, you should tell us," Taros said gently. "It’s just temporary, right, Hiro?"

"Yes, bro," Hiro nodded quickly. "We’re in the Malynster’s villa. This is Marcus’s mansion, and the frame with your name was changed just a day ago. It used to be my daughter’s room."

Her brows drew together as she realized what he meant. "Did you make a decision without me? Who said I wanted to live with him? Who said I wanted a father?"

"No one is forcing you, my love," Hiro said softly. He could see she misunderstood again. He rubbed her knuckles gently. "Every decision is yours. If you want to leave right now, we’ll do it. What matters is what you want."

Angela could see that they truly meant it. They were on her side. She took a deep breath, trying to calm herself.

"This room was made for you a long time ago," Taros explained quietly. "Marcus said he kept changing it every year, hoping that one day he’d find you. If you don’t believe me...."
